Spira4U

The Spira 4U is a car made of foam and uses eco-friendly plastics, and bamboo as a roll cage. Its construction uses much less resources than that of a traditional vehicle.

The Spira 4U, in its electric version, can travel up to 775 kilometers with a single 50KWh battery, according to the manufacturer, this would set a GuinnessWorld Record if the car were in production. In fact, they initially tried to manufacture it in the Philippines and Thailand without success, but it was eventually produced in China by Wangye Power Co. and later in the Philippines by Gerweiss Motor Co.

This car is very suitable for these countries, it's easy to repair, to manufacture and it's very affordable.
